Well, there went that backup point guard. According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, Mo Williams signed a two-year, $5.6mil deal with the Portland Trail Blazers today.

With Williams out of the running, who do you think the Grizzlies will go after next? We've seen Beno Udrih's name come up a few times...
One thing is for sure, the lack of Williams means all of those Bayless/Prince/Wroten trade discussions we've all been having in the comments here lately might need to be dialed back a notch. Or... maybe the backup point guard for the Grizzlies is already on the roster?
Grizzlies and Calathes have until the 15th to come to a decision.
